Swap Usage

Indicator: Swap Usage

Description: Swap usage of the system. The value is calculated using the following formula: Swap usage = Used swap size/Total swap size. Assume that the current threshold is set to 75.0%. If the usage of the file handles in the system exceeds the threshold, the system is unhealthy.

Recovery Guide:

Check the swap usage of the node.
Log in to the unhealthy node and run the free -m command to check the total swap space and used swap space. If the swap space usage exceeds the threshold, go to 2.
If the swap usage exceeds the threshold, you are advised to expand the system capacity, for example, add nodes.

Host File Handle Usage

Indicator: Host File Handle Usage

Description: This indicator indicates the file handle usage in the system. Host file handle usage = Number of used handles/Total number of handles. If the usage exceeds the threshold, the system is unhealthy.

Recovery Guide:

Check the file handle usage of the host.
Log in to the unhealthy node and run the cat /proc/sys/fs/file-nr command. In the command output, the first and third columns indicate the number of used handles and the total number of handles, respectively. If the usage exceeds the threshold, go to 2.
If the file handle usage of the host exceeds the threshold, you are advised to check the system and analyze the file handle usage.

NTP Offset

Indicator: NTP Offset

Description: This indicator indicates the NTP time offset. If the time deviation exceeds the threshold, the system is unhealthy.

Recovery Guide:

Check the NTP time offset.
Log in to the unhealthy node and run the /usr/sbin/ntpq -np command to view the information. In the command output, the Offset column indicates the time offset. If the time offset is greater than the threshold, go to 2.
If the indicator is abnormal, check whether the clock source configuration is correct. Contact O&M personnel.

Average Load

Indicator: Average Load

Description: Average system load, indicating the average number of processes in the running queue in a specified period. The system average load is calculated using the load value obtained by the uptime command. Calculation method: (Load of 1 minute + Load of 5 minutes + Load of 15 minutes)/(3 x Number of CPUs). Assume that the current threshold is set to 2. If the average load exceeds 2, the system is unhealthy.

Recovery Guide:

Log in to the unhealthy node and run the uptime command. The last three columns in the command output indicate the load in 1 minute, 5 minutes, and 15 minutes, respectively. If the average system load exceeds the threshold, go to 2.
If the system average load exceeds the threshold, you are advised to perform system capacity expansion, such as adding nodes.

D State Process

Indicator: D State Process

Description: This indicator indicates the unstoppable sleep process, that is, the process in the D state. A process that is in the D state is waiting for I/O, such as disk I/O and network I/O, and experiences an I/O exception. If any process in the D state exists in the system, the system is unhealthy.

Recovery Guide: If the indicator is abnormal, the system generates an alarm. You are advised to handle the alarm by referring to ALM-12028.

Hardware Status

Indicator: Hardware Status

Description: This indicator is used to check the system hardware status, including the CPU, memory, disk, power supply, and fan. This indicator obtains related hardware information using ipmitool sdr elist. If the hardware status is abnormal, the hardware is unhealthy.

Recovery Guide:

Log in to the node where the check result is unhealthy. Run the ipmitool sdr elist command to check system hardware status. The last column in the command output indicates the hardware status. If the status is included in the following fault description table, the check result is unhealthy.

Drive Slot	Drive Fault Predictive Failure Parity Check In Progress In Critical Array In Failed Array Rebuild In Progress Rebuild Aborted
Battery	Low Failed

If the indicator is abnormal, contact O&M personnel.

Host Name

Indicator: Host Name

Description: This indicator is used to check whether the host name is set. If the host name is not set, the system is unhealthy. If the indicator is abnormal, you are advised to set the host name properly.

Recovery Guide:

Log in to the node where the check result is unhealthy.
Run the hostname host name command to change the host name to ensure that the host name is consistent with the planned host name.
hostnamehost name For example, to change the host name to Bigdata-OM-01, run the hostname Bigdata-OM-01 command.
Modify the host name configuration file.
Run the vi /etc/HOSTNAME command to edit the file. Change the file content to Bigdata-OM-01. Save the file, and exit.

Umask

Indicator: Umask

Description: This indicator is used to check whether the umask setting of user omm is correct. If Umask is not 0077, the system is unhealthy.

Recovery Guide:

If the indicator is abnormal, you are advised to set umask of user omm to 0077. Log in to the unhealthy node and run the su - omm command to switch to user omm.
Run the vi ${BIGDATA_HOME}/.om_profile command and change the value of umask to 0077. Save and exit.

OMS HA Status

Indicator: OMS HA Status

Description: This indicator is used to check whether the OMS two-node cluster resources are normal. You can run the ${CONTROLLER_HOME}/sbin/status-oms.sh command to view the detailed information about the status of the OMS two-node cluster resources. If any module is abnormal, the OMS is unhealthy.

Recovery Guide:

Log in to the active management node and run the su - omm command to switch to user omm. Run the ${CONTROLLER_HOME}/sbin/status-oms.sh command to check the OMS status.
If floatip, okerberos, and oldap are abnormal, handle the problems by referring to ALM-12002, ALM-12004, and ALM-12005 respectively.
If other resources are abnormal, you are advised to view the logs of the faulty modules.
If controller resources are abnormal, view /var/log/Bigdata/controller/controller.log of the faulty node.

If CEP resources are abnormal, view /var/log/Bigdata/omm/oms/cep/cep.log of the faulty node.

If FMS resources are abnormal, view /var/log/Bigdata/omm/oms/fms/fms.log of the abnormal node.

If PMS resources are abnormal, view /var/log/Bigdata/omm/oms/pms/pms.log of the abnormal node.

If IAM resources are abnormal, view /var/log/Bigdata/omm/oms/iam/iam.log of the abnormal node.

If the GaussDB resource is abnormal, check the /var/log/Bigdata/omm/oms/db/omm_gaussdba.log of the abnormal node.

If NTP resources are abnormal, view /var/log/Bigdata/omm/oms/ha/scriptlog/ha_ntp.log of the abnormal node.

If Tomcat resources are abnormal, view /var/log/Bigdata/tomcat/catalina.log of the abnormal node.
If the fault cannot be rectified based on the logs, contact O&M personnel and send the collected fault logs.

Checking the Installation Directory and Data Directory

Indicator: Installation Directory and Data Directory Check

Description: This indicator checks the lost+found directory in the root directory of the disk partition where the installation directory (/opt/Bigdata by default) is located. If the directory contains the files of user omm, there are exceptions. When a node is abnormal, related files are stored in the lost+found directory. This indicator is used to check whether files are lost in such scenarios. Check the installation directory (for example, /opt/Bigdata) and data directory (for example, /srv/BigData). If any files of non-omm users exist in the two directories, the system is unhealthy.

Recovery Guide:

Log in to the unhealthy node and run the su - omm command to switch to user omm. Check whether files or folders of user omm exist in the lost+found directory.
If the omm user file exists, you are advised to restore it and check again. If the omm user file does not exist, go to 2.
Check the installation directory and data directory. Check whether the files or folders of other users exist in the installation directory and data directory. If the files and folders are manually generated temporary files, you are advised to delete them and check again.
